Dream or nightmare

You close your eyes

You go to sleep

There's nothing much to iy

But then there's dreams

So pleasant and sweet

I control them so eagerly

But even I am plagued with nightmares

Why it it that I

the one who controls dreams

am plagued by this nightmare

That never seems to go away

Why am I the one who suffers through?

It's hard to sleep

With these broken dreams

These dreams of pain and blood

These dreams of lost loved ones

If only I could stop these dreams

But even I am plagued nightmares

But this time it's reality
